Sustainable Options Promise to Redefine the Electricity Supply of Roraima

On October 25, during a special meeting of the Electric Sector Monitoring Committee (CMSE), the National Electric System Operator (ONS) outlined crucial recommendations to facilitate the import of electricity from Venezuela to Brazil. This action aims to replace the reliance on costly thermal power plants that supply the system in Boa Vista, the capital of Roraima. The main energy supplier for this initiative will be the Guri hydroelectric plant, located in Venezuela.

The Importance of Reliable Data

For informed decision-making, the ONS expressed the need for detailed and up-to-date data on the Venezuelan Electric System. This step is essential to ensure the integrity of the joint operation between the two countries, especially as the interconnection intensifies. It is worth noting that the information currently held by the ONS is based on the last occasion when Roraima was connected to the Venezuelan electricity grid.

During the meeting with the CMSE, the ONS shed light on the pros and cons of two reliability criteria discussed to re-establish this connection with the Venezuelan electric system. The criteria examined include operating under the N-1 guideline, without power interruption in Roraima, and operation with controlled load shedding (with the activation of ERAC). The crucial point raised to ensure safety in the exchange of energy is the ability of the connection to operate continuously. This means that the amount of imported energy must adjust according to demand, reaching near-zero values during periods of lower consumption in Roraima if necessary.

Prevention and Safety First

To ensure a stable interconnected operation, the ONS emphasizes the imperative of implementing a Special Protection System (SEP). This mechanism would serve to disconnect the interconnection in adverse situations occurring in the Venezuelan system, thus protecting both Roraima and Venezuela from potential disturbances in the electric flow.

This move, promoted by the ONS, not only aims to optimize the costs associated with electricity supply in Roraima but also seeks to strengthen bilateral energy relations, ensuring a more sustainable and interconnected future for both nations.
